Peloton’s new Automated Following solution uses vehicle-to-vehicle technology to allow a single driver in a lead truck to control two platooning vehicles.
As it gets closer to announcing the availability of commercial truck platooning, Peloton Technologies laid out the details of how its two-truck platooning system, PlatoonPro, works to ensure safety and security in a new report.
Real-world deployment of truck platooning systems appears close, but developers aren’t keen to offer many details on their efforts.
While it seems pretty certain that some forms of autonomous trucking are definitely on the way, the vision varies on just what that’s going to look like and how fast it’s going to get here. That was the takeaway from a panel discussion on platooning and autonomous vehicle technologies at the American Trucking Associations’ Management Conference & Exhibition.
